100% doing this again... accompanied with a Bloody Mary, absolute game changer 👌

Thanks for the reminder @kalifire 👍

Awesome thanks! 

[grilladelphia]

think this could be the one you know - sunday roast would set me right up for the day - only worry is missing it due to being incapacitated!

[DareToDibble]

I’ve only heard good things about this. Have been very tempted but when it came down to it - call me cheap - I’m not sure I could part with the best part of £40 for a meal at Glastonbury.

[Fish Bulb]

I think I'd be too nervous about booking a slot, then the timings being released and someone I really wanted to see being on at the same time.

Are they flexible with moving you if that happens? Or am I asking too much?

Also, does it sell out?

[One Tonne Baby]

A fun idea, but fuck trying to walk from John Peel to the Park with the meat sweats after a full roast dinner.

You have to not think about it like that, I like to think about it as a 3 course meal for £40. 

You get proper plates/cutlery/ wine glasses and bottles (if you want to drink wine, I'm fairly sure you can still drink your own booze) it's just something fun and a bit different to do at the festival.

That’s why we’re going for Thursday evening this year. It all sells out, yeah. The first two days and Sunday are especially popular.

really enjoyed my sunday roast last year but having to walk away from the barsteward sons of val doonican was heart breaking

I would opt for the weds or thurs where there isnt going to be anything to miss

Good shout.

Can you BYOB as mentioned above or not?

[Crazyfool01]

Do these tickets come up in any kind of Resale ?: )

Just floated this idea with the group I'm coming with, one of them who hasn't been before replied with:

"TBH eating with a knife and fork at a table and the prospect of having somewhere to wash my hands means I'm tempted to book in for every night and just get gout"

[Ayrshire Chris]

Never tried it, Mrs c suggested it but I’m always aware of the possibility of the booking clashing with an act I desperately want to see. Maybe Wednesday or Thursday if it’s available.  We will be arriving in Glastonbury town on the previous Saturday so will have 4 days of drinking and eating out, all you can eat brewers Fayre breakfasts, fuelling up, pre festival so might just be happy with the usual festival foods!

Whats the food options like in WV? Mainly thinking of early morning breakfasts or maybe late night munchies.

[Earth_pig]

Just the usual breakfast fare, bacon rolls, coffees , the butty boys do bagels and a decent spicy Cumberland sausage!   Flying machine cafe does American breakfasts, wraps etc. Burgers, chips.   Burrito shack for chilli fry’s , nachos.  Amore pizza, obvious what they do and a breakfast pizza!  Coffee shop does cakes, And the bar! 

And of course in the past there’s been the signature dish of WV, the duck egg omelette, smoothies, porridge From the wakey wakey eggs and bakey 

Or my tent, stewed tea and a wagon wheel!

Quite a selection then, we have normally taken a small burner to make the early morning brew and the missus breakfast hash but was thinking of travelling light even though the car wouldn't be far. I'll pop round for a Wagon Wheel (Not as big as they used to be) or I'll have to carry all the gear  for our fry ups. We've cooked this brekkie at a few festivals now and the smell of frying onions, bacon and sausages soon gets a few comments round the campsite.

I'm in two minds about the Deluxe Diner though, sounds like a nice treat, I would aim for the Sunday midday and hope for no clashes assuming we could get up by then after all night partying.        

[Havors]

How anyone can plan where they are going to be at any given time at Glasto is beyond me.... its hard enough making sure you dont miss a band you want to see  

Sounds great if i could guarantee there would be no clash and I would not be having a blast somewhere else on site and have to leave...

BTW, thats quite a detailed summary of the options can see that you have investigated thoroughly if not sampled everything!   

[duke88]

I'd love to do something like this as it's my 40th on the Sunday, but there's no way I'd prefer to be sat eating a meal when I could be out watching a band and drinking beer!

It's a shame they don't do a nice breakfast or something.

Some friends done this last year and apparently the food is good and the were eating quite close to the big E himself.

I couldn't... er... guarantee I'd have an appetite at a pre-arranged time at Glastonbury.  It can disappear sometimes

Yeah you can.

They do sell wine and beer via a drinks menu but there is nothing stopping you from drinking something you have brought with you yourself.

The Beer and Wine options for sale are completely different from those at any other bar so its not just like pints of carlsberg, at least.
